Every network is a cluster of access control panels. In its standard form, each
access control panel can be configured as either one or two readers per door.
Each of the AC-215, AC-225, and AC-525 panels have two readers and can be
configured as a one or two-door panel. Each AC-425 panel has four readers
and can be configured as a two or four-door panel.
When using an optional MD-D02 (supported by AC-225 or AC-525) or MD-
D04 (supported by the AC-425) reader expansion board, each panel has four
or eight readers and is configurable as such.
